The Crown of Contentment
Scripture:
“Godliness with contentment is great gain.” — 1 Timothy 6:6
Personal Reflection:
Burroughs called contentment “the rare jewel” because few possess it, and fewer keep it. It is the crown of a disciplined, God-centered heart. True contentment is not found by having everything I want, but by wanting nothing but God. When I am satisfied in Him, I possess all things.
Contemplation:
Do I see contentment as optional, or as a vital mark of godliness?
Prayer:
Lord, make me rich in the jewel of contentment. May Christ be my treasure, my peace, and my joy forever.
Challenge:
Spend time in worship today without asking God for anything. Simply thank Him for being enough.
